I’ve mentioned that you can request songs, so please do! Just know, that unlike my brother Jeff, I’m rubbish at remembering birthdays. I mean, it took me a week and a reminder to do a Mother’s Day Song. So if you want a song for a birthday or special occasion, just let me know. Use the message box or hit me up by email (jeffssongoftheday at gmail dot com) or on the socials.
Lots of graduations are going on! Susquehanna University here in town had theirs over the weekend, and others near by over the previous two weeks. Today’s music dedication goes out to two graduates from their proud momma, my friend Christine. Tessa Romani graduated on Friday from King’s College in Wilkes-Barre with a degree in Exercise Science and a minor in Psychology. Her sister, Isabella, now Dr. Isabella Romani, graduated the week before from Virginia Commonwealth University School of Dentistry!
Fantastic news and congratulations to to both of you! Sometimes we have a two-for-Tuesday feature, so I guess we can call this “more for Monday.” You each deserve a song, and your mom had some great suggestions. First up, one of my favorites, “Unwritten” by Natasha Bedingfield. It was the third single from her debut album and her first top ten hit in the US.
The second song is from two music legends, Whitney Houston and Maria Carey, recorded for the 1998 animated film The Prince of Egypt. The full version played over the movies ending credits and was featured on albums by both artists.
So, as you go out and write your own stories now, believe in yourselves! You have reason to be proud.
